Here's what I hope: 1. A "Video iPod" that isn't. That is, a Nokia 770 like device done "right". Not a movie player, whose market is currently, so far as I can see, close to non-existant. 2. The return of the Cube (Intel version), as a mid-ran…

I would make the minimum accessable. There should be a removable panel giving access to the RAM, and an external expansion port on the bottom (essentially a miniPCI or similar thing with other channels such as USB and Firewire also exposed. This'll …

Quote: Originally posted by ecking Who would want an iMac mini? A 13.3" screen on a desk? That'd just be werid You're probably right. I'm thinking "Low end iMac", but I'm not sure what it would look like to be honest. I'm pretty sure there's a…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross I don't know how many people here remember this, but Apple was accused of having too many choices. It was said to confuse the consumer. Jobs simplified the line-up. I'm not sure if he wants to expand it yet…

Quote: Originally posted by TenoBell If Apple did offer the small tower the best case scenario would be to increase sales while not too negatively affecting sales of the iMac or PowerMac. The absolute worse case scenario would be if current Ap…

Quote: Originally posted by vinea You effectively need to build in the profit on a monitor into the cube since you have to expect that for each cube you sell you're losing a iMac sale. I can't imagine how each cube ("Cube06" - a modern cube)…

Quote: Originally posted by Dazabrit I have got a horrible feeling that this means there will be another overhaul of the iMac, which will become The 'Mac'. Why a horrible feeling? Unless they're planning IG in "The Mac", I don't see a proble…

Quote: Originally posted by Mr. H I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to twist your words or anything. The comment I quoted did imply that you think everyone who buys a computer is a computer enthusiast. No, it didn't. Quote: You did say, "the hypoth…

Quote: Originally posted by TenoBell As far as the $499 Mac mini. I don't believe $100 will make or break a computer sell. What likely happened with the $499 Mac mini is that people still spent the $100 to upgrade to the features that $599 …

Quote: Originally posted by melgross That's simply not true. Almost ALL low price machines, including $1,000 and up machines from Dell, and others come with IG. Many laptops do as well.Even some up to $1,500 do. Very few people buying these ma…

Quote: Originally posted by steve666 I quoted specs almost identical to the previous Mini G4. Hard Drive prices have gone down so thats a wash. A 64Mb Graphics card now should cost no more than the previous card. If Apple spent more for a Core…

Quote: Originally posted by DavidH IIRC, the higher frequency for 802.11a means its signals don't go through walls/floors as well as 802.11b/g signals. For the large percentage (majority?) of people who wanted 802.11 as an alternative to cabling…

Sounds like a good thing IMHO. 'a' may have a shorter range, but it doesn't have the overlapping channels issues of 'b' and 'g', is as fast as 'g', and has a number of channels that simply do not overlap with ISM equipment (so you don't have to buy …

This could just mean that together with moving to the ix86 platform, Apple ultimately intends to phase out Mac OS X in favour of Windows. This would cut their support costs, but obviously it does mean they have to go into overdrive porting their exi…
